He certainly won't do 3 days in a row when the 2nd save comes at like 10 PM and the third is at 3PM the following day. In general I bet he'll do 3 in a row if his pitch counts stay low.

Thanks ender, saw your post in the closer thread on this too!

anyone know why Villy? Maybe keeping Hoffman from playing 2 days in a row until he is stronger?

Hoffman won't pitch 3 days in a row this season

Was that announced at some point? Thought maybe they didn't want 3 days in a row because he just got off the DL, but sounds like you are saying it will be that way all year.

I just can't see them doing it. I looked over last years game log quickly and times he went back to back to back days(and 1, 4 day span) one of the days he only went part of the inning to get a save.
